Torre d’Orti
Amarone della Valpolicella Riserva Brolo Camozzini
Torre d'Orti's desire to improve and experiment led to the creation of this Amarone Riserva produced in small quantities. Due to the exposition and natural ventilation, the grapes can reach a perfect healthy maturation. The uniqueness of this wine lies in the long maceration of the grape skins followed by an aging in small barrels. Time spent in the cellar leads to unique scents where undertones of fruit fragrances leave room for hint of spice combined with a captivating, withered rose petals scent.
On the palate, Brolo Camozzini is strong yet gentle, presenting fine grained tannins, good sappiness, and is powerful but never excessive. Regardless of its age, this wine does not express all its potential at once. It will evolve for many years to come and be an authentic expression of the Valpolicella area.
Integrated certified wine by "SQNPI" (Italian Quality System of Integrated Production).
